Specific heat capacity of a substance is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius of one gram of a substance. Therefore, the work done on the gas (in joules) is 4.95 J.
<h3>
What is Enthalpy?</h3>
Enthalpy term is basically used in thermodynamics to show the overall energy that a matter have. Mathematically, Enthalpy is directly proportional to specific heat capacity of a substances.
Mathematically,
q = n ×ΔH
where
q = amount of heat
n = no of moles
ΔH = enthalpy
n = w / M.M
Work in thermodynamic= work done on the system =p×change in temperature
work done on the system= 1.5 atm×(5.1 L - 1.8 L. )
work done on the system=4.95 J
Therefore, the work done on the gas (in joules) is 4.95 J.
